Happy Easter!!

THANK YOU, LORD

for the gift of Your love.

May I be a shining example of that love to others.

Amen.

'we are stardust, we are golden, and we've got to get ourselves back to the garden'

By HIS wound...We are healed.. By HIS blood.. HE save us..

On this day... This Good Friday.. I pray.. O Jesus, it is not the heavenly reward You have promised which impels me to love You; neither is it the threat of hell that keeps me from offending You. It is You O Lord, it is the sight of You affixed to the Cross and suffering insults; it is the sight of Your broken body, as well as Your pains and Your death. There is nothing You can give me to make me love You. For even if there were no heaven and no hell I would still love you as I do!

True Meaning of Easter Egg

The custom of having Easter eggs is very widespread, so much so that the Christian meaning has been all but forgotten. Of course, parents should tell their children, these Easter eggs are just symbols of the Risen Christ.

As a chick breaks the shell, when it is hatched and begins life, so does our Lord. He comes forth alive from the tomb. It is a symbolic meaning of a New Creation of Mankind with Jesus risen from the dead. A symbol of joy and celebration and of New Life and Resurrection.
